Today you’ll complete the Ladder Workout (and take advantage of the optional part of the Ladder) then tackle the Core Finisher.
Climb the Ladder Workout – Do 1 rep of each exercise. Then do 2 reps of each exercise. Then do 3 of each, 4 of each, climbing the ladder to 10 reps of each exercise.
Optional: Once you get to 10 for both exercises, climb back down the ladder from 10 back to 1.
Burpees with Jumping Jack

- Quickly bend over placing your hands flat on the ground
- Bracing your abs, jump your feet back together so you are in a high plank
